It works fine, wish it had a Venice core or something else, at the time I built it it was a smokin machine, nostalgic!!!!!!!!

I might find a use for it.

9800 Pro and everything...you, sir, are my hero.

Now...flash that Pro to an XT, and then, find an X800 somewhere.

Throw a couple of big drives into it, add a TV card and make it a media server. That's what I did with my old Athlon 5000 rig. It works great, and dirt cheap, too.

My old rig is more ghetto than yours my friend, mine was an Athon XP running PATA Hard drives.

PATA, really? I still have a few of those drives around my house somewhere.

Anyone here still using dip switches?

Wow, I don't doubt that running 7 on that thing would be pretty awesome!

My old rig had a 2.8Ghz pentium 4 with a gig of DDR2 RAM, then it went to 2.5Ghz and then at the end, it only had like 768MB of RAM! And it actually ran Windows 7 better than Xp not going to lie.
